• I picked up you saying GUI first as gooey 😀

• Does it has autocomplete ?

• Please make the extended video. Due to some complications with Windows 11 I recently Arch-pilled my laptop. I didn't expect Linux to work so well as a daily driver, especially for school.

• ThePrimeagens zero to LSP is a great resource if you want to configure nvim yourself

• nvim sucks and is for femboys

• is it safe to use my main pc to go on tor?

• I don't rice Vim/Neovim because all that fluff won't be available when I'm logged into your server, which is usually where I am.

• Thank you so much! I'm too lazy to learn these shortcuts myself XD

• Nice!

• Thanks to you I am motivated to dive a little deeper into nvchad. I think I will use it from time to time at work. 👍

• after getting used to vim, gui IDEs just seem like a downgrade. tmux only increases that sentiment

• you talk too much and show too less

• hype

• So it's basically visual studio code, but for terminal?

• Shipping to Canada when?

• I noticed you accept XMR. Awesome! Everybody in the world needs to use it!

  NvChad is poorly documented.

  The themes, <leader>th, suck. I've gone through all of them over-and-over-and-over but none work for me. The current line and the comments are almost invisible to my eyes. I've had to make some special colors. They need to quit coming out with so many themes and start making some good ones. Quality beats volume.

  The telegram help channel for NvChad is, well, unhelpful.

  Normal vi is good enough for me. Vim is overkill. Neovim in today's world is the default. NvChad is the kitchen sink. I told myself I'd try NvChad and if it slowed things down I'd choose something else. Surprisingly this kitchen sink is performant. No slowdowns to stop the show.

  Overall it was a great video.

• Hi mental, i'm basically a beginner in tech, could you make a video about security certifications and why are THERE SO GODAMN MANY ON MY PHONE

• When I used Vim for the first time I was very puzzled,😵‍💫didn't even know how to save or even exit out of that shit!!!! 🙂But now I don't only hate but despise other text editors other than Vim or Neovim to be precise. Learning vim is awesome 😚& it was worth learning. But still I have a soft corner for vs code (vs codium), 😐I don't know why may be cuz I am a normie afterall in this regards.

• One of the problems I am having with NvChad out of the box is that it is breaking my personal .vimrc keybinds, some that I've been using for over 13 years now, which includes left-handed navigation controls. NvChad looks pretty, feels ok, but clearly needs work to be compatible with existing customization.

• holy shit terminal users will do anything to not use a real IDE

• never heard of buffers tbh 😀 hehehehe leme try this thx

• ams the copilot integration is Mwa

• i love the / when im looking for stuff in a text ;à

• i fel a real brotherhood lilent there. buuuuut yeah once u use this nvim thingermedjigger …..

• Use helix it's a blazing fast memory safe rust masterpiece of a terminal IDE

• this kind of ide layers for vim is really cool but the point is they are not specialized to you. İ like my editor simple. If i am missing something i can easily add it to my own configuration. Thats why after some time when you gained enough knowledge you better be thinking of creating your editor according to your needs.

• Vim configur-ers are the vegans of vim

• PDE*

• Are you into Rust? Best programming language in the world! 🦀

• Neovim? Like neoliberal? Ummm no thanks 👍🏻🇺🇸

• nvchad is very nice. I use lunarvim all tweaked out. It's nice.

• Nvchad, what a funny name

• cmoooon i just booted w10 to play pubg and i see this, how im i suppose to focus on anything knowing that this exists!

• Ok nvim get another chance now, thanks!

• I use Microsoft word I highly recommend it.

• Hi Mental, How is your RockPro doing so far and does the tor relay's work on them?
  Greetings and keep up the nice videos!

• Thought I was chad enough to use it but it complains about compilers missing and a lot of errors just from standard configurations might be a nixos thing. I only wrote stuff in vim script so fighting the lua errors is kinda wonk, witch complains about a library in treesitter, works fine tho.

• Guy who is not a developer selling IDE to me, nice.

• I'll use VIM when it lets me use the mouse.

• Ctrl-i wasn't working for me, so I mapped it to Ctrl-L in custom/mappings.lua:
  ["<C-l>"] = { "<C-i>", "Go to newer cursor position in jump list" },
  
  Makes jumping back (Ctrl-o) and forth on your searches or whatever so much easier.

• why are you speaking like ur trynna sell me a car 😂

• Take the Emacs pill my friend. It is a path into the unknown, but a path well taken

• Lol I literally switched to nvchad a few weeks ago. Before that I used spacevim bit imo it was a lot harder to tweak it because it was further away from standard neovim

• I find it a little funny that so many nvim plugins seems to do exactly the same as a feature which already is built in but just with a little better UI 😀

• You uploaded this at a perfect time because I was going to try out lazyvim yesterday

• I like Helix bindings better. It's from Kakaune something
